Ellen DeGeneres is widely known for her television career, but a significant part of her wealth has also been built through an extensive real-estate portfolio. Over the past two decades, DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, have bought and sold dozens of high-end properties, including Beverly Hills mansions, Malibu residences, Montecito estates and an English country property.
According to Celebrity Net Worth, comparing the recorded purchase and sale prices of the properties they have sold suggests that their real-estate transactions have generated approximately $200 million in gross gains. The figure does not account for renovation expenses, taxes, commissions, financing or other costs, but it illustrates the scale of the couple's activity in the luxury property market.
